Week #1 New Year, Who Dis? As I walked through our cooler this morning to remind myself of what we were eating this week, I saw everything that I could have hoped for. Colors - Purples, Pinks, Oranges, and of course GREENS Textures - Soft, Crisp, Juicy, Tender Shapes and Sizes Galore!! When you eat plant forward, it can become dull at times...in other words, it can seem like you are just eating the same salad every day.   Take the time this week to do something a little different.  If you normally eat your brassica’s or asian greens raw...hit them with a little heat in a pan.  If you normally cut your carrots into coins, take the time to use a peeler and essentially “peel” an entire carrot into your mix.  Those long,  thin strips of carrot hit your pallet different than just cutting them up into chunks.   Keep it fresh. New Year, Same You, Same Food, New Style Always Happy To Give You The BIRD! WHAT'S COOL THIS WEEK: (keep an eye out for the recipe this Thursday which features Chorizo!)                                                                                    Pastured Bison Ground Chorizo                                                                                       YBFS Pork Green CHorizo Sausage Links                                                                    Yellow House Pork Chorizo Links  *A foodshed is the geographic region that produces the food for a particular population. The term is used to describe a region of food flows, from the area where it is produced, to the place where it is consumed, including: the land it grows on, the route it travels, the markets it passes through, and the tables it ends up on. "Foodshed" is described as a "socio-geographic space: human activity embedded in the natural integument of a particular place."[1] A foodshed is analogous to a watershed in that foodsheds outline the flow of food feeding a particular population, whereas watersheds outline the flow of water draining to a particular location. Through drawing from the conceptual ideas of the watershed, foodsheds are perceived as hybrid social and natural constructs.
